Lent! Please pick up the name of one of Westside's Preschooler's

from the display in the Narthex. During Lent please write a card

or encouraging note weekly to the child you have selected. Place

the card or note in the box on the table in the Narthex. The

cards and notes will be given to the Preschool teachers for

delivery. Let's support these children with extra attention during

this season of Lent.

The Discipleship Team is looking for individuals with a friendly

smile and warm greeting to welcome our preschoolers as they

arrive each Tuesday, Wednesday, and Thursday for class. You

need to arrive in the Narthex at 9:00 and be prepared to greet

the children when they arrive. You will be free to leave at 9:30.

A clipboard with a sign-up calendar will be circulated through

the congregation the next few weeks and will be in the office

during the week. You are invited to sign up for one day or

several days as your schedule permits. Please join us as we begin

this new outreach ministry. If you have questions, please see

us, please contact a member of the Discipleship Team.

YOUTH GROUP Donate 40 Things for 40 Days - Lent is

about preparing for Easter and meditating on the crucifixion

and resurrection of Jesus. One way that people prepare is by

making sacrifices in their lives. As a church, we are taking on

the challenge of donating one thing each day during Lent.

These donations could include clothes, books, cd’s, electronics,

household items, etc. We will be collecting your donations at

church at the end of Lent and donating them to various

community agencies. Please join us in taking on this challenge

as we prepare for Easter!
